The upcoming match against the Vietnamese team is even more meaningful for Han Sen, the game on July 8 will be Han Sen's 23rd birthday, and Xu Yun and his parents will rush to Shenyang to celebrate his birthday. After the team learned about it, they joked that if Han Sen was born some time later, he would be able to celebrate his birthday in time for the Olympic Games, and that birthday would inevitably be more meaningful.

Wang Yiming also specially turned out a newspaper he read a few days ago, saying that there is really such a report, saying that 22 football players will spend their birthdays during the Beijing Olympic Games, among which Zheng Zhi and Pu Wei of the Chinese men's and women's football teams will celebrate their 28th birthday on August 20 as the "three same" born on the same day and month of the same year. Among them, the New Zealand men's and women's football teams have a total of 5 Olympic birthday stars, ranking first among the participating countries, 3 men's football players and 2 women's football players. The youngest of them is Anna Green from the New Zealand women's football team, who was born on August 20, 1990 and will celebrate her 18th birthday during the Beijing Olympics. Zheng Zhi and Pu Wei, two Chinese players, are 10 years older than Green, both born on August 20, 1980. In addition to them, Chinese women's football goalkeeper Han Wenxia will celebrate her 32nd birthday on August 23, the day of the men's football final. She was born on the same day, the same year, month and day as the veteran of the U.S. women's football team, Kate Markgraf, and is tied for the oldest birthday star. For Nigeria's Olubayo Adefemi, Cameroon's Etienne Pokong and New Zealand's Greg Draper, August 13 has a special significance. This day is their birthday. It is also the day of the third round of the men's football group stage, in which Nigeria vs. the United States, Cameroon vs. Italy, and New Zealand vs. Belgium. After this match, someone will advance to the quarterfinals. There will also be people who will pack up and go home, and they will definitely hope to make a beautiful Olympic birthday memory with a victory.

"It seems that Zheng Zhi is still a good deal." After Wang Yiming read the newspaper to everyone, he smiled at Zheng Zhi and said, "The jerseys are specially worn No. 8." By the way, Han Sen, what do you mean by staring at the 13th, you are 85, and it is your birthday on July 8th, and it has nothing to do with 13th! ”

Speaking of which. Except for a few relatives and friends, no one really knew the significance of Han Sen's number 13, so Han Sen looked at everyone who was looking at him for advice. Embarrassed to say, "My girlfriend is a few days younger than me, and she's on the 13th!" ”

"Oh!" Suddenly, the whole team let out a tacit cry, and Wang Yiming said to the team members jokingly: "Who of you will find a reporter next time and break this news to the media." Zheng Zhi. This task is up to you, Captain. ”

Everyone was chatting happily here, but Doy was unhappy there, and the interpreter shouted loudly that everyone had come to gather.

Although it was a birthday, the coaching staff said that this tactical drill was very serious, and would not give any face to Han Sen on his birthday, and would strictly follow the established policy to arrange the personnel, if the game effect was satisfactory. That night, you can give Han Sen a small vacation and let him get together with his family.

Vietnam for political reasons. After the Second Shijie War, it was divided into North Vietnam and South Vietnam, and football also suffered a split, with South Vietnam outperforming North Vietnam and finishing third in the 1956 Asian Cup and 1960 Asian Cup. North Vietnam, on the other hand, only played a few games with other communist countries in the 10 years from 1956 to 1966. After the reunification of the whole country, after many years of war, it was not until 1991 that Vietnam began to participate in international competitions. Vietnam's results in international competitions were mediocre until 2007, when the national Olympic team reached the final of the Olympic qualifiers, the national team entered the Asian Cup final week for the first time as one of the host countries, and Vietnam defeated the West Asian champion United Arab Emirates 2-0 in the first round of the group stage, and drew with Qatar in the second game. Despite Zuihou's defeat to Japan, they still made a historic run to the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup. Although Vietnam lost in the quarter-finals to eventual champions Iraq, they broke the embarrassing situation of Southeast Asian countries who had not qualified for the knockout rounds for many years. However, in the qualifiers for the Shijie Cup in South Africa this time, the Vietnamese football team was also out early. However, in Southeast Asia, Vietnamese football is a local snake, except for the Thai team, it can beat any team in Southeast Asia,

In this game, the National Olympic coaching staff announced to the players in the attitude of training that most of the players only have a chance to play at half time, and in this game against Vietnam, Zheng Zhi and Li Weifeng, who played all the matches of the national team, do not need to play. The coaching staff started the first half with goalkeeper Qiu Shengjiong, defenders Yuan Weiwei, Feng Xiaoting, Wan Houliang, Tan Wangsong, midfielders Jiang Ning, Hao Junmin, Han Sen and Zhao Xuri, and forwards Zhu Ting and Gao Lin.

Wang Yiming explained the lineup of the midfield on behalf of the coaching staff before the start of the game, because the combination of this midfield has almost never appeared before, Zhao Xuri is undoubtedly the back midfielder, and Hao Junmin is the right midfielder, as for Jiang Ning, this is also a character who can skillfully convert attributes between the striker and the front waist, Wang Yiming means that Jiang Ning and Han Sen are jointly responsible for the offensive and defensive conversion of the left side, Jiang Ning has to insert more into the penalty area to score, and Han Sen is responsible for the defense of the left side and the strategy of the side. This is the first time that Hansen has tried the left midfield position in his entire career, which also shows the importance that the coaching staff attaches to this position and the determination to change the formation.

For this reason, Wang Yiming specially pulled Han Sen to solve his puzzles alone, which means that there is no very prominent and suitable candidate for the position of left forward now, if Han Sen can show a relatively stable performance, then this position will be his only one in the future.

First of all, in the team, there are not a few people who play full-back, including Shen Longyuan, who apologized to himself in the front, and even Dong Fangzhuo can also be qualified for this position, and furthermore, Jiang Ning playing the front waist is also a strange appointment, after all, there are already Zheng Zhi, Chen Tao and his own three front waists in the team, and one more front waist is not asking for nothing, but although Han Sen's eyes can see it clearly, the coach's intention is to obey unconditionally. But the most important thing is that Han Sen can see that this lineup is equal to not having a single overage player.

After the start of the game, after some testing, no matter how superior the offensive and defensive strength of the Vietnamese team, there is still a difference with the National Olympic team, Han Sen and Hao Junmin's two wings suddenly took the lead in becoming active, first Hao Junmin frequently sent crosses on the right side, but was destroyed by the opponent because of the average quality, and then Han Sen also attracted more defensive strength from the opponent on the left side, because it was not an authentic left foot, Han Sen did not have the courage of Hao Junmin to go to the end, but more to stabilize the ball at his feet, Waiting for the opportunity to cooperate with Jiang Ning and Zhao Xuri, although it was not as dazzling as Hao Junmin's side, but effectively controlled the rhythm, the attack of the entire National Olympic team suddenly leaned to the left, and of course, the entire situation on the field also fell to Han Sen's side.

In the 30th minute, Han Senren faced the two players of the Vietnamese team on the left side, facing the two players of the Vietnamese team on the back line, and then suddenly changed to the right foot directly into the penalty area, and Gao Lin, who was inserted in the back row, volleyed vigorously along this sharp pass to take the lead for the Chinese team.

Immediately after a rare attack by the Vietnamese team, Vietnam obviously did not have the ability to dispatch the whole field, even if they snatched the ball back, they still burst into the penalty area along Han Sen's side. A No. 11 player entered the penalty area to face Yuan Weiwei seems to be a little energetic, a few consecutive not very smooth bicycles are about to deceive Yuan Weiwei, Han Sen returned to the defense in time, regardless of whether the opposing team member is a bicycle or not, a big stride forward, directly separated the contact between the opposing player and the ball, and used the physical advantage to card the opposing player behind him, the No. 11 player of the Vietnamese team may be 1.7 meters tall, and a typical thin body, maybe there are some speed advantages, But in front of Han Sen's speed and liliang, it is basically not worth mentioning, so under Han Sen's card, he also screamed and fell to the ground, and the referee awarded a penalty.

Han Sen suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly stretched out an index finger to swing, indicating that this was not a penalty, but the referee also spread his hands and signaled irrefutable. (To be continued......)
